11. New York Jets

Brad Penner, USA Today Sports

Record: 5-7, third place in AFC East Remaining schedule: vs. Oakland Raiders (Dec. 8), at Carolina Panthers (Dec. 15), vs. Cleveland Browns (Dec. 22), at Miami Dolphins (Dec. 29) Skinny: The Jets' playoff hopes are on life support after a loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. They finally benched turnover-prone rookie quarterback Geno Smith and replaced him with Matt Simms. It's not over for the Jets, but it's unlikely they'll be relevant in the playoff hunt. Their issues at quarterback might be too much to overcome.
